I know how much you guys love giveaways. I love them too. And if I could, I would give something away to you every day. And while I can't, I can send you in the right direction. Allow me to introduce you to the Season of Schwag with Holi and Dash over at our holiday sister site, Holidash.

Monday's giveaway featured a gorgeous Lilly Patent Flower Tote and a Croc Elite Posse Pouch, and yesterday's giveaway was for the sweet Adidas adiSTAR Rides sneakers you see up there on the right. You have until Friday to enter for the purse, and Saturday to enter for the shoes, but there's more. So. Much. More.

Holidash will be hosting a giveaway every day through Christmas, and we are talking about some amazing prizes. And it's not like you have to pick and choose what you enter to win -- you can check back every single day! There will be something for literally everybody, so get over there now and start entering to win.

We had a bunch of great entries in last week's Fit Beauty Gracie's Gear Giveaway. Many of you shared hilarious stories about backwards pants and baggy shirts and more, and if I could, I'd give each and every one of you something new and fabulous to wear.

But, I can't. And so, I want to congratulate Kimberly, our Fit Beauty winner, who will be receiving her fabulous Gracie's Gear Hoodie shortly. Poor Kimberly wrote, "When my sisters and I were little, we took a lot of dance classes. Nothing stinks more than having to take off your entire leotard and tights ensemble to use the bathroom - nothing except my mother's solution. My mother cut the leotards at the crotch area and fastened them back together with VELCRO. What do you think happened when we did a cartwheel or back walkover? Yep, you guessed it. Horror."

The hoodie might not solve that exact problem, but it's sure to help her stay warm when she's working out this winner. Thank you to everyone who entered and shared their funny stories, and be sure to check out next week's giveaway! And, of course, you can get your own goodies from Gracie's Gear here.

We're giving this prize away now for this week's Fit Beauty, but you only have until tomorrow to enter. It's a great prize by a fantastic company -- any lady would be lucky to have this in her closet.

Name: Jorn

Age: 38

Occupation: "Tech Things"

How often do you exercise? Three to five days a week.

What type of exercise do you do? Resistance work; I hope to get back to TaeKwonDo soon.

What gets you to work out, even when you're feeling lazy? 1. Knowing that I have never, ever, ever said to myself, "Gee, that workout sucked. I shouldn't have exercised today." 2. Back fat. Ewww. 3. Most people peg me for being 10-15 years younger than I am. That didn't happen when I was fat a few years ago.

Earlier this year, I did a review of Gracie's Gear, a fitness apparel company with charitable twist. I was totally impressed with the quality, fit, usefulness, and look of the sports bra and top, and now, you could win a chance to try out a Gracie's Gear hoodie!

The hoodie is a quarter-zip jacket designed to keep you sufficiently warm but dry when you're working out on cooler days -- the special material even works to keep you from getting smelly! A zip-close pocket in the front will hold all of your workout essentials. Plus, it's cute!

Entering to win is easy! See below for details.

• To enter, leave a confirmed comment below telling me about your worst fitness wardrobe malfunction -- split pants, bouncy bra, whatever applies to you.
  
• The comment must be left before 5pm ET on Friday, November 28, 2008.
  
• You may enter only once.
• One winner will be selected in a random drawing.
  
• One winner will receive one Gracie's Gear hoodie (valued at $65).
• Open to legal residents of the 50 United States, and the District of Columbia who are 18 or older.

First of all, if you haven't had a chance to check out the entries in last week's Fit Beauty MOTOROKR Headset giveaway, let me just say, you're missing out. Readers, you blew me away with all of your favorite workout songs. Some, I already have on my playlist, some I'm in the process of adding, and some really surprised me.

As great as all your entries were, there can only be one winner, and that is Jennipher of Fit Bottomed Girls, who gets pumped up listening to Wyclef's Stayin' Alive. She's going to have a ball working out with her new Motorola MOTOROKR S-9 Wireless Headset.

So, congrats to Jennipher, and thank you to everyone who entered. If you're still wanting a headset of your own, you can get it here for $129.99.

Want to get in on another giveaway. Kristen is giving away one fit gadget over here. Be sure to check it out and leave a comment before Friday, November 14 if you wish to enter and try to win.

Thank goodness we now have headphone choices instead of the giant earmuffs that once were standard -- those are just so goofy-looking. And trust me, I look goofy enough when I'm working out -- I don't need any help. However, with most headphones, you still have to deal with wires. At least, until now.

For this week's giveaway, we are so thrilled to offer the MOTOROKR S-9 Wireless Headset, as you might have seen on The Biggest Loser (or in Fit Gadgets just a couple of weeks ago). It comes with an iPod adapter and works with most Bluetooth-enabled cell phones, so you can listen to your music and take calls, all completely hands (and wires) free! And speaking of free, here's how you can win your own:

• To enter, leave a confirmed comment below telling me what your favorite workout song is.
  
• The comment must be left before 5pm ET on Friday, November 14, 2008.
  
• You may enter only once.
